St Helens

St Helens is the largest town on Tasmania's North-East Coast and just a few kilometres away from Binalong Bay and the southern end of the beautiful beaches of the Bay of Fires, one of Lonely Planet's top 10 regions in the world.

St Helen's is the state's second largest fishing port, renowned for its
catches of deep sea fish and lobster and a popular destination for
recreational fishing. Its waters abound with game fish such as Albacore
Tuna and Yellowfin Tuna, and the town is known as the game fishing
capital of Tasmania.

On land, the 1-hr return walk to St Helens Point takes in the spectacular Peron Dunes and vast ocean beaches that attract surfers and beach lovers alike.

St Helens offers all the services of a busy town with a positively laid back vibe, and that's just the way the locals and visitors like it. There's no shortage of eateries and shops to hang out in and people watching is a favourite local pastime.
